Buy Pinot Gris and Pinot Grigio online in Australia at Whisky Wine Sake. Australia's fastest-growing white variety earns its popularity honestly — pear, apple and honeysuckle with a soft, easy texture that makes it the most crowd-pleasing bottle you can bring to any table.
Gris or Grigio — same grape, two styles
The name on the label is a style guide. Pinot Grigio signals the Italian way: picked early, light-bodied, crisp and dry — think of it as the refreshing aperitif style. Pinot Gris follows the Alsatian model: riper, rounder and more textural, with spiced pear and sometimes a whisper of sweetness — a genuine food wine. Australian producers use both names deliberately, so you can tell what's in the bottle before you pull the cork. The King Valley, Adelaide Hills, Mornington Peninsula and Tasmania lead the local charge.
When to reach for it
This is the peacemaker of white wine — the bottle that pleases Sauvignon Blanc drinkers and Chardonnay drinkers at the same table. Grigio styles love antipasto, fried fish and salads; richer Gris handles pork, chicken, mild curries and creamy sauces. Serve at 8–10°C.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Pinot Gris and Pinot Grigio?
Identical grape, different winemaking intent. Grigio = lighter, crisper, drier (Italian style). Gris = riper, rounder, more textural (French/Alsatian style). Australian labels use the name that matches the style.
Is Pinot Gris sweet?
Usually dry to just off-dry. Richer Gris styles can carry a touch of sweetness for texture, but nothing like a dessert wine.
Is Pinot Gris related to Pinot Noir?
Yes — it's a colour mutation of Pinot Noir. The grapes are actually greyish-pink ('gris' is French for grey), which is why some examples show a faint blush tint.
